Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup fresh mozzarella balls, halved (bocconcini)

1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions
 

Prep the Avocados: Start by slicing the avocados in half and removing the pit. Carefully scoop out a small amount of the flesh (about 1 tablespoon) to create more space for the filling while making sure to keep the skin intact. Set aside the scooped avocado for later use.

    Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella balls, chopped basil, and the reserved avocado. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Gently fold everything together until well mixed.

      Stuff the Avocados: Evenly divide the chicken mixture among the avocado halves, pressing down slightly to ensure they are well-packed.

        Drizzle with Balsamic: Finish by drizzling the balsamic glaze over the stuffed avocados for a touch of sweetness and tang.

          Serve: Arrange the stuffed avocados on a serving platter or individual plates. Optionally, garnish with additional basil leaves for a fresh look.
